Well, I'm Back

Just in time for the Republican National Convention. Actually, the cable in my dorm-room isn't working, and between assembling furniture, planning courses, and drinking my fucking ass off, I've barely had any chance to pay attention to things. Jamie Kirchick told me tonight that he expects the convention to produce a big bounce for George Bush. We'll see. Until the middle of August, I was convinced that John Kerry would win the election. Now I have no idea.

Apparently some of the delegates are passing around Purple-Heart Band-Aids in mockery of John Kerry's war service. [How many of these assholes took shrapnel?--ed.] If there is in fact a just deity around whom the universe turns [highly unlikely--ed.], these scumbags---and the SBVF"T" and their defenders---will turn off enough voters to tip the election to Kerry.
